No hike, no job security, no skill development, no easy transportation.even if you learn new technologies they will ask for experience and make you work in technology which you already know.if you do "jing jack" you will get everything else you will be cornered and make you to think resigning is best than staying there

The work is so pathetic that if you are smart and know how to play with the managers you can easily cut it down to 2-3 hours a day max.

...er level compared to my experience level and I still think its very low level. The salary is also pathetic and if you are a slacker or a lateral hire with less than 2 years at cognizant its okay to work at. Other than that just leave it and aim higher.

Dislikes

It's a service based company like other WITCHA companies. Every thing will depend on the type of project you get and your manager. 10 hour shift which was introduced during covid because everyone was working from home is still going on Might get stagnated after few years.
